came off cold, distant, and unsympathetic in all of those episodes.

How one could get that off of Sam's characterization in 5.18 is super confusing to me.

Or in 5.03. His poor hurt puppy face :( And Lucifer :( And his scenes with Lindsay!

BAW, don't make me sad, nonnie! Now all I can think about is poor puppy Sammy :(

Is it possible that this is "Bobby always throws Sam under a bus" nonnie? Because now I am imagining a version of 5.18 Sam who coldly and deliberately let Dean go in the hopes that he would carry through on suicide by angel, much like evol!Bobby, but without the cricket whites.

It was a fiendish plan. We could call his supposed declaration of love and trust a tactical declaration.

Because you're still my big brother -- and that means maybe if you die I get your stuff.

Sam just wanted the car. He was so chagrined by the utter failure of his plan that in 5.22 when he saw Dean there leaning against the Impala he cast himself into the Cage in a fit of pique.

Cas's failure to get all of him out of the Cage was actually awesome for Sam. He could be distant and unsympathetic like he'd been wanting to all along! Dean thinking something was WRONG and trying to get him a runner was a horrible betrayal of his true nature.

Well, once he had the Charger, he didn't need Dean OR his bucket of rust car. It wasn't bringing him out soulless by accident or breaking the wall on purpose that Sam holds against Cas, it was destroying the Charger. Behind Sam's s7 charade of Cas forgiveness lurks an implacable thirst for revenge that will dominate s8.

He could actually have fixed it after falling on it. Why doesn't fandom wank more about that callous neglect?

And AVSC. The way Sam coldly, distantly, and unsympathetically couldn't bear the thought of celebrating Christmas with Dean when he knew he was losing him, and the way he coldly, distantly, and unsympathetically did so anyway and gave Dean a Christmas because Dean wanted it. I look at that Sam and I think "that man has no heart."

He knew Dean really secretly wanted Hanukkah, but coldly and unsympathetically dreidel-denied him.
